On The Run

“I couldn't be prouder, Frankie,” I murmured, smiling as he curled up, laying half on my chest.
He giggled and kissed my jaw. “It was all Angelo, really. The shop and everything.”
I shrugged and ran my fingers through his soft dark hair. “I'm still proud of you.”
Frank buried his face in my neck and hugged me tightly, purring softly. I felt myself slowly drifting off as he lay there, warm and calming.

Frank shook me gently. “Gee? Gee, wake up, baby. I got a surprise for you.”
I groaned softly and he tugged at my hand excitedly. I swung my legs over the edge of the bed and got up slowly. Frank dragged me down the hall to the bathroom and opened the door. Rose petals were laid out everywhere, and the bath was full and bubbly. I chuckled softly and he kissed me. “Can we get in?”
I nodded and kicked my boxers off, stepping into the bath and sitting down. Frank climbed in and sat across from me, which was unusual. He normally sat in my lap. I frowned and opened my arms. “Cuddle?”
“Not yet.”
He reached over and picked up something from the countertop. “I have something to ask you, Gee, but mostly cause you haven't asked me.”

I frowned and leaned forward, kissing him softly. “What's wrong, baby?”
Frank shook his head quickly. “Nothing's wrong. I just...will you marry me?”
I froze and blinked as Frank opened the little box, showing off a beautiful ring nestled in velvet. I felt myself start to tear up and glanced at his face. “I...I. First of all, fuck yes. Second of all, how'd you buy that?”
Frank put it aside and climbed into my lap, straddling me happily. “Angelo did it, I'm gonna pay him back.”
I nodded and hugged my new fiancé tightly. “M’kay. I fucking love you, y’know.”
Frank giggled and started to cry very softly, kissing me deeply. I shifted and I slid into him, causing him to let out a faint noise.
“Is this okay?” I murmured against his lips, holding his hips tightly. He nodded quickly and grabbed onto my shoulders as I rolled my hips slowly, moving into him as deep as I could. Frank whined and collapsed against my chest, burying his face in my neck and clinging to me as I held him, making love to him slowly and carefully, the way it should be done.

I woke up naked in bed with Frank, his arms around me tightly and his legs tangled in mine. I stroked his hair and got up slowly and carefully, stretching. I smiled to myself and kissed my fiancé’s cheek before walking into the kitchen and starting on breakfast.

By the time Frank walked into the kitchen, bleary eyed and clad only in his boxers as I was, I was dishing up chocolate chip pancakes.
He squealed and hugged me tightly, giggling. “My favorite!”
I laughed and handed him a plate. “I know, baby. Eat up, yeah? Maybe we’ll have time for other things before I go out,” I said, winking at him. He went bright red and hurried to the table to start.
As soon as I sat down next to him, Frank grabbed at my hand, looking at the ring. “Perfect,” he grinned. “Where are you going today?”
I leaned over the table and kissed him. “Well, first of all, I gotta buy you a ring. And then Angelo wants to show me the shop and have a coffee to talk about stuff.”
Frank nodded and giggled, bumping his forkful of pancakes against my lips. I grinned and ate it obediently, blowing him a kiss.
“So cute.”
